I searched to find who she was
She didn't tell me who she was
She came into my heart
And hasn't left yet
What is her town or name?
I didn't ask a single thing
Just the thought of her is enough
Nothing else comes to mind
With her sugar-candy words
She dissolves me and walks away
Like a spool of thread
She ties me up and walks away
With eyes lively like a little cricket
She tells a story and walks away
This charming girl captivates me
Sweeps me up and casts me aside..
I forgot my name and my hometown
I lost all my hunger and sleep
I finally realized who she is
Because of her, my life turned around
With her beauty, she bowled me over
She crushed me like sugarcane in a mill
Like rain, she drenched my heart
And gave me a whole new life...
Aaa... haaa...
I searched to find who she was
She didn't tell me who she was
She came into my heart
And hasn't left yet
Like a cupboard in my chest
All my restless desires
I had stacked neatly
In a quiet corner
You came like a sudden shower
Slipped into my heart
Scattered everything and left
Far away
Who are you, girl... who are you?
Just give me an answer, that's enough
My six-foot frame... my six-foot frame...
Will surrender at your feet
Tell me, girl... what is this, girl?
Just your smile is enough
My feet will leave this earth behind
And walk up in the sky
I forgot my name and my hometown
I lost all my hunger and sleep
I finally realized who she is
Because of her, my life turned around
With her beauty, she bowled me over
She crushed me like sugarcane in a mill
Like rain, she drenched my heart
And gave me a whole new life...
With her sugar-candy words
She dissolves me and walks away
Like a spool of thread
She ties me up and walks away
With eyes lively like a little cricket
She tells a story and walks away
This charming girl captivates me
Sweeps me up and casts me aside..
I forgot my name and my hometown
Chorus: Forgot it all
I lost all my hunger and sleep
I finally realized who she is
Chorus: Realized it
Because of her, my life turned around
With her beauty, she bowled me over
Chorus: Bowled me over
She crushed me like sugarcane in a mill
Like rain, she drenched my heart
Chorus: Drenched it
And gave me a whole new life...
Who is she...
She did something to me...
I forgot my name and my hometown
I lost all my hunger and sleep
I finally realized who she is
Because of her, my life turned around
Who is she...
She did something to me...
With her beauty, she bowled me over
She crushed me like sugarcane in a mill
Like rain, she drenched my heart
And gave me a whole new life...
